During the 80's and some 90's TV shows, they parodied "citizen's arrest" as if it were just a "TV gimmick", but not a real-life enforceable thing. This is a rare ending where the main baddie faced justice at the hands of the regular law enforcement vs. at the end of one of Airwolf/Hawke's missiles or bullets!
We were picking vegetables and all of a sudden this helicopter shot down two crop dusters and a unidentified single engine fixed wing. Then the cops came and so did I.
loved the show growing up but sad thing was even then i noticed they used a lot of cute scenes for the dog fights and such kinda takes the magic out of it a bit for me
Haha.. he blow up a plane over a field that was just sprayed with gas and nothing happened!! I like how bullets flying everywhere and people just standing around watching.
I also love the last shoot down. Heading straight at each other and when he fires its the tail of the plane explodes. Loved it when I was a kid though.
Must admit, I didn't notice the continuity problems when I was 10 years old lol. Its only now I'm still watching the clips of it in my 40's that I notice.
The village getting the courage to stand up to the Spider at the end was a different ending compared to the baddies usually eating a Copperhead, Maverick, or Hellfire missile as their comeuppance.
@@AirwolfArchive, i like two things in this battle: - Airwolf's arrival, breaking the crop dusters formation like "Damm, here comes the bouncer!"; - Hawke using the Airwolf turbos in such a inventive way and taking the Spider into his web (no pun intended). But mainly because this time the final solution wasn't in Airwolf's hands ... they stood back and the villagers did the most important part.
Citizens arrest Subject has to just willingly sit there, besides he put their lives in danger hows that gonna look in court machine guns and misses against farmers
The crop duster goons had to stand in as the baddies who met their deaths at the end of Airwolf/Hawke's missiles, where Tran gets put into the police cruiser while his former victims walk over his parachute knowing they're finally free.
